Except for the muddy edge caused by walking around the edges of the shoe prints, the position of the soles of the feet and the heels can be said to be perfectly matched.
Then under the intimidation of Qi's eyes, Hua Xiaocao cried and stepped on with the other foot, but the result was the same.
"Xiaocao, what did you say?"
Although she was holding back the sparks in her heart, the old lady still resisted speaking in a normal voice.
Don't say that her old lady didn't give Hua Xiaocao a chance.
"My...Village Chief Grandma...it's just a footprint, maybe it's a coincidence? I really can't remember clearly, and...and even if it looks similar, it doesn't prove that this is my foot, wuwu... ...Village Chief Grandma, I really don’t have one.”
Even Ben Hua Xiao Cao knew that he could only bite himself to death, but he couldn't remember clearly.
There was some truth in what he said, and some people in the crowd nodded.
It is true that many people's feet are about the same size. Based on this alone, it is a bit far-fetched to say that they are Hua Xiaocao's feet. It can only be said to be a bit suspicious.
Old Madam Hua looked deeply at Hua Xiaocao, and her impression of Hua Xiaocao fell to the bottom.
After living so long, the old lady admitted that she had made a mistake.
Hua Xiaocao is far less caring than she appears.
If she was really timid, with so many people surrounding her and being forced like this by her granddaughter, she would have been so frightened that she could not speak.
Not only did he not, he didn't say a wrong word, and looked like he was asking for perfection.
There was no shortage of words that needed to be said and defended, and some of the words were even just right, and even stirred up everyone's emotions, which was incredible for a child.
"Okay, stop using your image as a doormat. No one here bullies you. Hua Xiaocao, you are right. This alone does not prove that the footprints are yours."
Hua Xiaocao was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Hua Jin meant by that.
"But... there is no way to prove it." At this point, Hua Jin looked at Hua Xiaocao's feet.
At the same time, everyone's eyes followed Hua Jin to look at Hua Xiaocao's shoes, which were obviously thin and did not fit her feet and were no longer torn, with almost a few of her toes exposed.
Maybe because the shoes don't fit well and the shoes are too small, the two longest toes can rub against the ground if I'm not careful.
The crowd's gaze made Hua Xiaocao embarrassed and embarrassed, and she shrank her feet sharply. Unfortunately, no matter how hard she tried, her toes could not move in.
Looking away, Hua Jin raised the corners of her lips slightly and slowly squatted down.
When she first found these footprints, Hua Jin had already observed them carefully. Except for some irregular edges, almost all of the footprints had obvious traces of being stepped on and were slightly dented at the front of the soles of the feet.
At first, Hua Jin was also wondering how the dents were caused.
But when he touched Hua Xiaocao's feet, he immediately figured it out.
When walking with small feet and large shoes, the soles of the feet will unconsciously exert force, and the turned-out toes will naturally also exert force, and they will naturally leave traces when they touch the ground.
"Look at this." Hua Jin pointed at the dented mark in front of the shoe without any nonsense.
Following Hua Jin's words, everyone looked over subconsciously, and then discovered that there was another mark in the direction of the thumb of the shoe print, like...
They are all experienced adults and can tell what is going on at a glance.
It was obviously a mark caused by the toes sticking to the ground. Immediately, their eyes involuntarily looked at Hua Xiaocao's exposed toes, which could not be retracted even when they were retracted into the shoes.
"Hua Xiaocao, what else do you have to say?" Hua Jin said with a sarcastic smile.
Hua Xiaocao gritted her teeth tightly, hating Hua Jin to the core of her bones for always forcing her.
"Just...even so, you can't say it's me..."
At this moment, her feet were once again coerced into the shoe prints by Mrs. Qi next to her. Even though her toes were retracted into the shoes, her thumbs were still aligned. Facing the thoughtful gazes of everyone, Hua Xiaocao still bit her. Clench your teeth.
Hua Jin sneered. In fact, she already knew that Hua Xiaocao would not admit it, and she would not admit it if she had done something bad.
What's more, Hua Xiaocao's life at home is already difficult. If her family knew that she had offended the village chief and his family, life would be even more difficult. Hua Xiaocao would never admit it even to her death.
"...Do you admit that everyone's eyes are sharp? These days, only it rained in the early morning of the day when my accident occurred. People from other villages will not come here. Moreover, there are few shoes in our village that can be as broken as yours." If there is no second person, Hua Xiaocao, why don’t you admit that you also went up the mountain that day?”
"...It's been so many days, I really don't remember. Anyway, I...have no ill intentions towards you." Hua Xiaocao continued to cry.
"Hua Xiaocao, I'm going to have a good chat with you." The old lady couldn't bear it any longer as she looked at the perfectly fitted footprints, with a cold light in her eyes.
Xiaocao panicked when she heard that she was looking for her, and immediately knelt down and begged: "Village Chief Grandma, I really don't have one. Please don't tell Nai, they will beat me to death..."
"Then why did you lie? You were here when Jin'er's accident happened, so why did you lie? Jin'er even remembered it and you still don't admit it."
"I didn't...I..."
"Pa" Mrs. Qi couldn't help but slapped Hua Xiaocao, knocking her to the ground.
"Our Jin'er never lies. If he says he sees you, he will definitely see you. Also, why doesn't my daughter tell others and only talks about you? Hua Xiaocao, my daughter is so good to you, why do you treat her like this? , do you know how long my daughter suffered on the mountain because you didn’t report the knowledge? She almost... almost... why are you so cruel at such a young age..."
When he was out of breath, he raised his palms again and was quickly stopped by several women on the side.
Although in their opinion Hua Xiaocao was indeed wrong, and it was either a matter of not admitting it or not, everyone had seen it, and the evidence was already obvious, but after all, they were still children and they couldn't just watch him being beaten.
"The Chengtian family needs to calm down, don't treat it with a child."
Hearing this, Hua Jin rolled her eyes in her heart. Look, this is the argument.
But this slap was really domineering, and Hua Jin felt very happy because he protected the calf.
"Hua Xiaocao, if you're wrong, you're wrong. Apologize quickly." A woman pulled Hua Xiaocao to persuade her.
"I... No, why don't you believe me? I was not feeling well that day and had a fever, so I had to work hard. I can't remember exactly where I went. Why are you forcing me to admit it? …Woooo…”
"... Huahua knew that I was not feeling well that day. She helped me up when I almost fainted."
Liu Huahua hesitated for a while before standing up, "That's what happened."
"Hua Jin, you have a family who loves you, and your life has been so comfortable. I don't know what made you unhappy about me. Why did you say that to me? Even if I was on the mountain that day, you saw me It doesn't mean that I see you too! How can you miss me so much? My life is already difficult. Please give me a way to survive." Hua Xiaocao cried miserably and fell to the ground. His eyes were full of despair.
This sentence is to the point, and the aunts and ladies here really think it makes sense.
Also, even if Xiaocao and Huajin arrived at the same time that day, it doesn't necessarily mean that Xiaocao discovered Huajin.
Although they thought so in their hearts, looking at the unhappy mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, no one dared to worry about this bad guy. It was about Jin'er's affairs, and they didn't dare to express their opinions at will, lest they turn around and leave the village chief and his family in trouble.
